    Very cool. And I do like those seats. Nice pick up!

      If you had cloth seats, you had matching cloth door inserts.

      Simple as that. Unless this is yet another US spec thing.

          I’m not surprised.



          Even the M3 in my 1993 brochure which has the gray cloth seats, has matching inserts.



          So unless BMW cheaped out on 95 US M3’s...

            1995 M3 did not get cloth door panel inserts in the US.

              I don’t know why you say it like it’s a guarantee when you aren’t sure. 95s did not have cloth door panels in the US.

                Because it would make no sense whatsover. Like not at all.



                I do keep in that ‘margin’ as it’s not the first (and probably last) time I get my leg pulled as it turns out there is yet another US-EU difference.



                So ok, just for MY95 BMW NA was like, you know what, why would we need matching inserts. If we can do without the engine, we sure as hell don’t need no matching inserts.



                Or something along those lines.

                  Well its all speculation. If I had to make up an answer, I'd say they built all the cars with leather interiors. When someone in the states special ordered a cloth interior, they just grabbed a car, yanked the leather seats out, and threw the cloth ones in. It would have been a fair bet that with no charge leather in US cars, that no one was going to order cloth. To save time they assembled colour combos before orders were filled, then when someone put in the request they begrudgingly said "sure."


                  This is 100% a made up guess right now, as I'm not a BMW employee from 1994/5.

                          The car is falling apart at the seams. BMW definitely cheaped out on 95 US M3's.

                            Fact: I’ve never used the word better. Different, sure, but not better.



                            Everybody may think I’m a hater, that’s fine.



                            So yes, 95’s sure are the odd one.

                              They even omitted AC on ~108 Alpine White ones with no sunroof!!!

                                I heard they didn't even install the wing and it just came in the trunk with some other stuff in a box!
